  • Infrastructure Funding Performance Monitor
    UDIA NSW | 2020 Infrastructure Funding Performance Monitor $2.7 billion is currently held as a restricted asset by Councils for the delivery of infrastructure • The current total balance of contributions held across the Greater Sydney megaregion is $2.7 billion, with the average amount held by a Council sitting at $56 million. • Every year new housing contributes almost $900 million to local infrastructure, Executive roads, stormwater, open space and community facilities across the Greater Sydney megaregion through the infrastructure charging framework. It is expected Summary that this infrastructure is built with the funds that are paid. • However, only 64% of the contributions that are paid for were spent in the last three years. Average Total Expenditure Total Income Balance E/I ($’000) ($’000) ($’000) Total 0.64 $650,679 $876,767 $2,653,316 Contributions Under a s7.11 0.85 $564,670 $711,912 $2,330,289 or s7.12 Under a s7.4 0.62 $41,640 $124,180 $259,501 The amount of unspent funding has increased over the past three years • Since FY16 total unspent contributions have increased 33% from $1.98 billion to over $2.65 billion. Executive • In the last year alone unspent contributions increased by 7.8%, or almost $191 million. Summary • Local Government must resolve local issues to ensure that infrastructure is actually provided on the ground. If necessary, the State Government should step-in to support Councils get infrastructure on the ground. Increased funding does not correlate to increased infrastructure delivery • The scatter graphs here show an extremely weak relationship between cash held and expenditure ratios.

  • City of Canada Bay Bike Plan, East-West Bike Route
    7th December, 2020 To Whom It May Concern, RE: City of Canada Bay Bike Plan, East-west bike route Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed City of Canada Bay Bike Plan, East-west bike route. Bicycle NSW has been the peak bicycle advocacy group now in NSW for over forty-four years, and has over 30 affiliated local Bicycle User Groups. We agree with the ptc report and resident feedback that the current route via Gibbs Street and Queens Road is manifestly inadequate. Stenciling bicycles on the roadway, or on the road shoulder where cars park, will do nothing to prevent crashes or convince concerned riders to cycle. It is regrettable that Starve data was used in place of cyclist surveys. Strava is an app used by confident/ fearless riders whose focus is racing and competition. This app literally encourages riders to map the fastest travel times on particular routes, as a form of urban fitness challenge. This is not the audience Canada Bay Council is trying to encourage to ride bikes, and it is a shame that the report failed to canvas riders on the Bay Run who use the cycleway and shared user path, parents and school children. Some of the Bicycle NSW team travel through Canada bay to reach our office in Olympic Park and have direct experience of the many dangerous pinch-points along the Gibbs Street and Queens Road route, as well as better alternatives on quieter streets. We are also acutely aware of the heavy vehicles obstructing road shoulder bike lanes, and of the challenges children face trying to ride to school when crossings between footpaths are unsafe.

  • Introduction
    Introduction In January 1997, two Sydney Morning Herald journalists produced a brief account of what they perceived to be the most important rock and roll sites in Sydney.1 Their sense of the city's rock histories extended to places of local mythology well beyond popular music's production and consumption: five star hotels as frantic sites of adoration of the Beatles ensconced within; psychiatric hospitals where career paths merged with psychosis; and migrant hostels as sites of cross-cultural ambitions. The article was a rare acknowledgement of the spaces and places of performersand fans' interaction. This thesis constitutes an extended response to the article's implicit desire to recognise alternative accounts of Australian popular music connected to broader city narratives. In analysing the rock music venues of Sydney as sites of interaction between musicians, fans and government, I am principally concerned with three interrelated themes: • The social construction of live performance venues from 1955 amidst the parallel construction of the performer and fan as an 'unruly' subject; • The industrial development of live performance: the live rock venue within commercial/economic structures; and • The dialectical tension of the above in reconciling the state's desire for manageable 'cultural citizens' with broader cultural policy (support for live rock and roll within arts policies). A more detailed explication of these strands is undertaken in Chapter One, in providing a theoretical overview of relations between popular culture and the state, and specific media/cultural/popular music studies approaches to cultural practice and policy. My personal interest in the histories of live rock venues parallels an increased 1 Jon Casimir and Bruce Elder, 'Beat streets - a guide to Sydney's rock and roll history', Sydney Morning Herald, 9th January, 1997, pp.29-30.
